81 MetaIism .

WASHINGTON, December 81 The
President, to-day, transmitted to Con-
gress the report of Edward Atkinson,
who was specially designated by hin
to 20 to the financial centres of Europe
in oruer to inquire into the Feasibility
OF establishing by intern tionsl ard
ard fxity of ratio between the two
precious metals, in free lrade COINAGE
OF both" Atkinson Aummerlzes the
results of his inquiries under four
heads, as follows: 'First-There is no
prospect of any change in the present
monetary system of European
ststes which Can modify or Influence
the financial policy Of tie United states
at the present time Second -TheI are
no indications of any change i'll The
policy of the tinar clal autL critics of the
several states visited by me, which war
rant any expectation that the subject Of
q himetallC treaty fora common legal
tender. coupled with the free coinage OF
silver will be seriously considered at the
present time by them, TnIgd-There
is no Invocation That the subject of
bi-metallism has reCeiv, d any iuteli-
gent or serious consideration outside q
small circle ID each country, named as
a probable or possible remedy for the
existIng causes of the alleged de
preston in trade. Fourth There
is no considerable politically or
gained body of influential
person in either country with whom a
ombination could be made If such
combination or cooperation were de
sra BILE OF, the part of q similar body in
the United States, for promoting any
definite or practicable measures OF legis-
latiOn TO bring about the adoption of
the bi-metallic theory according to the
common accepted meaning OF tina term.
The discussion is as yet almost wholly
o TsOnal and without con"entra ion of
purpose, or the presentation of any well
developed method capable Of being
acted upon"
Atkinson's most important conclusion
is that it would be unwise and inexpe-
dientfo the United States again to1ake
the initiative in promoting action for
the general adoption of b-u tai ic
legal tender coupled with the FREE, coin
age Of silver, for the reason th2t such
actin Is miSconstrued, and may tend
u retard rather than to promote the
object aimed at.
